There are fundamental factors which cavities are formed:
- Bacteria found in the mouth
- Sugars and carbohydrates increase the risk of dental caries. Sticky foods are more harmful than sticky because they remain on the surface of the teeth.
- Susceptibility and bias: if the teeth are properly aligned or is not important as cleaning difficult areas will be more predisposed to decay and easy to clean areas.

In some cases the child may want to start brushing the teeth alone, in that case you can choose because you do during the day and parents at night, because this brush is more important.

Elche’s teeth are important because they are keeping the final location and teeth that will come later, besides providing the appropriate form to the structure of the face, also allow a correct development of muscles in that area and correct pronunciation speech.
Because of this lack of importance given to the first baby teeth, it is not uncommon for children to suffer from very small cavities, tooth decay that inevitably affect the permanent teeth. This is one of the key factors why we should give special care to teeth from an early age.
The following are some tips that will help us provide our children can wear their teeth throughout their childhood.
